SoSS #141 R is for RIP



This week's challenge was a challenge for all of us. RIP is it rip one or R.I.P (rest in peace) I wonder how each sistah took the challenge or how you will??

Me? I went with rest in peace, sort of. 





For the inside, I can't decide if I want the ghost in it or not. Now I haven't actually made a base this time, but the parts can go down easy enough when I need it for someone's birthday.

Bugaboo digital stamp
Dylusions paint pens
Freshly made sketch #1
Silhouette brand bling (heat set with the Imaginisce tool)

SoSS 136 F is for Family





This weeks challenge is F is for Family.  I am so so on this card but it works and I did the it. LOL  I think I was running out of steam when I did this one, or was at a crop but had to leave for a baby shower.. I think that was it.

 The inside says "I'm the tie-dyed one!"
Unfortunately I did not write down the supplies, or sketch or anything. LOL  The image and the sentiment are Dylusions.. that much I know. Pretty sure I used Dylusions paint pens to colour her in as well.

SoSS #135 I is for Ironmongery


This weeks challenge for the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers is Ironmongery.. just our fancy way of saying Steampunk. I love steampunk, recently got a steampunk tattoo and adding to it in a couple of weeks.



The original plan was to finish a dressform but I didn't get it finished..as you can see I didn't get very far working on it. I actually have taken the "skirt" apart several times.  I will continue and hopefully have it done by the time we decide to do this challenge again. :)



I had started a mixed media canvas at the same time, it is easier to work on it a little bit at a time so it did get completed.  I was going to put some sort of quote/statement//saying on it, but there really isn't any room and it doesn't really need it. Now looking at it..I think it needs more.. so I will be filling in the gears and stuff over the summer as the mood strikes me.



I can't even tell you what I used on it.. some Tim Holtz stuff, some prima, and other bits and pieces. The image is a Kenny K design.. I am so sad that they decided to close their business but it made sense for them. I love all of their images and if I could have afforded it I would have bought them all. :)

SoSS #134 W is for What the &*%#





This week's challenge had me stumped for a a bit and then I thought why not do an interesting art journal page. Those are always an interesting mix of items in a collage. 

So I pulled out my yet to be used preprinted background dyalog book and then found a magazine I had a duplicate of. I did pull out 2 other images but this Chris Pratt one got my thoughts going.. you know add a mermaid tail and some butterfly wings and you get an "What the &*%# !! 
To make matters more like that I ended up putting it in upside down, d'uh.  

I colored all the images with liquid sprays in water pens (I have almost all of the colors in the water pens, just waiting for an order to come in to finish the set). 



Stuff I used this time around:
Dylusions
~ preprinted dyalog book
Sprays ~ Vibrant Turquoise
~Cherry Pie
~Laidback Lilac
~ Mushy Peas
~ Fresh Lime
~After Midnight
Ink~ Funky Fuchsia
Black
Stamps~ Old is the new Black
~Plenty of Fish in the Sea
~ Dependable Dotty
~Sunday Best
~Around the Edge
~inbetweenies
~Pin Up Queen
~ Star Struck
Chris Pratt image ~ In Touch magazine

SoSS #132 K is for Karma




This weeks challenge is K for Karma. I love karma and I try to live my life that way.. whatever I put out into the universe comes back threefold. Always keep that in mind.


I had this image partically colored and gave up. Today I decided that it was salvageable and went for it. Really I thought I messed up the hair but it doesn't really look that bad. It was so long ago that I had started with my copic markers.. which I sold about 5 years ago.. and finished with my chameleon markers. 
Other items used in the making of this card:
Sketch ~ deconstructing jen 197
Patterned Paper~ Bo Bunny Enchanted garden
Ink ~ Dylusions polished jade
digital Stamp ~ I am 97% sure she is from Simply B (love Betty's images)
Sentiment ~ from the internet ( too lazy to print on the printer so more attempts were taken handwriting it. LOL)


Want to play along and join the Sisterhood?? Of course you do!!

Disclaimer: I lost all my digital stamps on my hard drive and when I was able to retrieve then using a program (and an amazing friend) the files were no longer labeled. That means I have to guess who the stamp belonged too. I am sorry if I get it wrong, please message me so I can correct any mistakes and the artist can get the credit.

SoSS #131 U is for Unicorn



It is time for another challenge with the sisterhood.   Unicorns seem to be everywhere, except when you need that embellishment or stamp. LOL

I actually love how this card came out, it even looked great before I added the unicorn to it.


I picked out the sentiment before the layout and thought this suited a unicorn. So I took a piece of white paper and just flicked some Dylusions sprays on to it and then looked for the sketch. 



Other shite I used to make this card

Sketch ~ Freshly made sketches 377
Patterned paper~ unknown
   ~ crate paper hooray  Happy Day
~ bo bunny unknown line
Stamp~ Dylusions oodles of foliage
 Dylusions laugh til you leak
Wink of Stella ~ pink
Ink ~ Calypso teal (Dylusions)
~ archival cobalt
Unicorn ~ recollections sticker
